Performing his breakaway hit “Home,” which served as the soundtrack to the Olympics’ women's gymnastics competition, for listeners of Boston radio statio Mix 104.1 at the Revere Hotel-Boston Common’s Emerald Lounge, it was a true homecoming moment for Raisman, who has spent the last year tirelessly training seven days a week for her Olympic showing.

“This is the first time I’ve really had a break,” she told Boston.com. “To relax and do nothing was really nice.”

And short-lived. Raisman has been furiously trying to keep up with a schedule that has her meeting sports stars like the New England Patriots, gymanstics fans and, yes, Idols. Said Phillips in a tweet: “Met @Aly_Raisman this morning and she's a lovely person. Very sweet.”

Next on Raisman’s to-do list? A guest stint on E!’s Fashion Police (she flies to Los Angeles on Wednesday), then it’s back to Boston in time for a parade in her honor on Sunday afternoon.
